Feedback
Firestone’s offers a mixed dining experience that invites both enthusiasm and concern.

For those seeking a vibrant dining location, Firestone’s might deliver joy, but with caveats to heed.
This was our first time eating Firestone 's. We chose to go there because our two go-to restaurants were closed after the holidays. I ordered their French onion soup. My wife ordered the cheeseburger. The food came fairly quickly. The soup looked good and the portion was what I expected for a lunch soup. I 8Unfortunately that is where the good ends. I took only one bite of it because it was so extremely SWEET. I have had many bowls of French onion soup but never have I had a bowl that was sweet. My wife tasted it too and was shocked by how sweet it was. Her burger was large and quite rare inside. She prefers rare, generally, but this was almost too rare for her. She had asked for medium rare. This was almost cool in the middle. She had French fries, which were dark and quite mushy. I don 't mind that she does so I had her French fries for lunch. The waiter didn 't come back to check on us until my wife had eaten most of her burger but not the middle rarest bit . It was at least 15 minutes. He asked how our food was and I told him that I did not care for the soup, explaining that I found it to be extremely sweet. He said that of course it was was sweet, it was made with Vidalia onions and brown sugar ?! . He did not apologize or say anything like I 'm sorry you didn 't care for it, . They did remove its from our bill, at least. With regard to the ambiance of the place: it was quite loud, but we expected that, at least.
Always love this little gem in Frederick! For drinks , food and overall experience can’t do much better!
It has the best French toast in town! The crab dip is good as well. The female waiters and host greets should be more presentable in my opinion… a little be of makeup and a nice hair style would not hurt them.
Excellent service, delicious and amazingly flavorful food. Every dish we ordered was cooked and seasoned to perfection. There were a lot of little details on many of the dishes that elevated the food. My only critique was how loud it was in therestaurant.
